It was dark. The only thing keeping me from falling on my feet was the faint gleam of the dim street lights. Life wasn’t supposed to be like this in new jersey. Never. It was supposed to be a new start. Obviously it was not. I took a seat at a bench by a local abandoned park , and lit a cigarette. I inhaled the toxic fumes deeply. As if it would save my sixteen year old life from mishap. Apparently not. The bitter cold kissed my nose. And left my toes and cheeks freezing. “honestly. When am I going to get over this…” I sighed.
“u never get over something. U just get used to its presence in your memories.” I quickly turned in the direction of the voice. It was Gerard. “how’d you find me?” I asked with a sassy tone. “it’s not that difficult Bella. U always come here.” He replied in the same tone mockingly. He took a seat beside me. Even tho this boy was graduating this year. I felt as if there was no age difference between us at all. He’s been my best friend for about 3 years now. I count on him for everything basically. “so tell me izzy. What happened?” “its nothing important” “obviously it is for you to be out here this late. Its nearly 2:30 in the morning.” I looked down. Clutching a necklace in my hand. It was beautiful. It had a silver chain and a diamond heart with wings suspended from it. I held it tight to my heart. Almost ignoring the fact Gerard was sitting next to me. The stunning piece of jewelry catched his eye, he figured out exactly what this was about. He moved closer to me and held me in his arms. “Bella, let it out. It’s the only way to move on.” I couldn’t help it. I burst into silent sobs of despair. He held me close and kissed the top of my head “don’t worry. As long as im here. You’ll be okay” my cries carried me to a tender yet morning way of sleep. And as I drifted off. Each memory of the past few days ran clear in my mind. Like a slide show of my life slipping by. It seemed clearer than day itself.
“Bella are you okay now?” Gerard asked still holding me tight.
“she fell asleep :]” he said warmly. He picked me up and walked over to his car, and laid me down in the backseat. He buckled me in. [[some how]] and he climbed in the drivers seat and buckled his seat belt and turned on the car. He began humming a tune. That I could hear faintly in my distant sleep. It sounded like a soft lullaby; it brought my spirit to a tranquil state of mind. But then again his voice alone has that affect on me. Gerard put in a CD, and began singing along. I realized it was the smashing pumpkins. A band he and I both were crazed about. I never really heard him sing. He always said he was nervous to sing in front of ppl. Even tho I told him he shouldn’t be that way in front of me. I cant really blame him, I’m like that to. He’s never heard me sing, im to scared to let him hear me. Cuz what if he hated my voice? Really, it’s the only thing I have going for me. Something I poore all my emotions and problematic situations into. It is my passion. And obviously, it was his as well. For he put so much emotion in each word. I put me in a daze. I didn’t dare signify my consciousness to Gerard. I wanted to hear his melodies. It brought me ease. His voice was beautiful, really. And I drifted off back into my somber sleep. Gerard pulled up into my driveway. With me sound asleep. He stepped out and rang the doorbell. No one answered. He peaked around the garage. No cars. He looked through my bag I had with me to see if I had a key. And to his surprise I didn’t have it this time. But what he did find surprised him more than that. in my bag he found a bottle of heavy medicated drugs. “she wouldn’t” he said to himself. ”it would make sense though. That’s why she didn’t bring her key. No. it cant be” He took the bottle and put it in his glove compartment and buckled himself back in. and drove us to his house. Gerard pulled up into his house and mikey ran out of the front door towards the car. Mikey walked up to the driver seat window were Gerard was sitting. Gerard rolled down the window and mikey stuck his head in “ mom is pisst. She has no idea were you went…” mikey turned his head and saw me sleeping in the backseat. “why do you have bella in your backseat? I thought you guys were just friends.” Mikey said jokingly. “Very funny mikey, No she fell asleep at the park. I tried bringing her home. But no ones home and she doesn’t have her key with her.” Gerard said. “ you check her mail carrying bag?” mikey responded questionably. “Yea, Its not there but I did find this” Gerard leaned over to the glove compartment and opened it. He took out a pill bottle and handed it to mikey “it’s a heavy narcotic” Gerard told mikey who was looking at it and inspecting it. “ you don’t think she would..” “ you know mikey I have no clue anymore. She’s been going through hell lately.” Gerard said interrupting mikey. Mikey handed Gerard the bottle and said “its better we ask her when she gets up… no need to jump to conclusions.” “I guess.” Gerard said putting it in his jacket pocket. And stepped out of the car. “ do you want a hand carrying her inside?” mikey offered. “ no im good. Just keep mom buisy when I sneak in from the back.” Gerard said opening the door to the back seat. “okay.” Mikey walked up to the front door and opened it. Gerard heard his mother say faintly “ is he here? Were was he. He ass is grounded!!” “ uhh mom just calm down.” Mikey said laughing closing the door. Gerard put me over his shoulder and carried my bag with him on his way inside. he opened the fence gate and walked up the back porch and opened the sliding glass door. “ what was that. you better not be lying to me Michael.” His mom said threatening the youngest brother. “ what are you talking about?” mikey said playing clueless. “ I heard the sliding glass door open!” his mom said getting up to investigate. Mikey put his hand on his moms shoulder and forced her to sit back down a bit roughly “ mom ur tired. I heard nothing” “don’t touch me Michael” Gerard snickered his way upstairs as he listened to his mom and mikey bicker. He laid me down on his bed and sat at the edge of it. He heard mikey run up the stairs and open gerards door. “ No hes not here!” mikey screamed to hi mom looking at Gerard. “Thanks man” Gerard said laughing. “So what are you planning on putting her?” mikey asked. “ I have no idea…” Gerard said. “ how about the closet?” mikey said suggestively. “uhh no. that’s just not right.” Gerard said looking at his small closet..filled with week old dirty close that missed the hamper. “ come on that’s the only safe place to put her. Think about it. Moms gonna sneak around and look in your room tonight.” Mikey said. “ I’ll think about it” Gerard said. “ anymore options. You can think of?” Gerard asked“ bath tub?” Gerard looked at the door way to his bath room. “ no” Gerard sighed. “MICHAEL! WHY IS GERARDS CAR IN THE DRIVE WAY?” their mother yelled to mikey from down stairs. Mikey smiled “ uhh I don’t know!” he yelled back. “ one second.” Mikey said putting his hand out towards Gerard and ran out of his room. “ why were you in his room? “uhh to check remember?” mikey said running down the stairs towards his mom. Gerard pondered about were the location of my sleeping self should lie. He never thought up the plan this far. He held his head in frustration. And looked at me sleep. I was sound asleep. Surprisingly. “ I never knew someone who was such a heavy sleeper” Gerard said warmly. He got up and opened his closet. He looked at me. And at the closet about twice. He sighed and said “sorry Bella. It’s the only option”. Gerard took the close and made some sort of bed with them, he took out the close he thought were dirty and put them in the hamper which was located in his closet. He laid me down on the close, kissed my forehead, and shut the closet doors. Gerard heard mikey run upstairs so he turned to his door waiting for mikey to open it. Mikey swung the door open frantically and whispered “ moms coming NOW. Hide. Sleep. Do something!” mikey said running towards his own bedroom. Gerard climbed in his bed and hid under his covers. Making it hard to see him…so his brother wont get in trouble for lying. So his mikey could simply say “ I didn’t see him”. Gerards mom opened the door and looked around. She felt around gerards bed. Until she found his feet. “ Gerard ware have you been. I know your not asleep.” She said angrily. “ uhhn” Gerard replied as if he was half asleep. “cut the crap Gerard.” His mom said pulling off the sheets. “mooom!” Gerard said in a dazed and tired voice. She turned on the lights “ ware the hell were you. You know better than this. You never used to sneak out.” His mother said. Gerard just smiled at his mom knowing that he does all the time. Just never got caught. “ you better start explaining yourself Youngman. And it better be good” she said pointing at Gerard “ well. I was hungry and wanted McCdonalds..so I went and got McCdonalds.” Gerard said smiling. “ bullshit.” She said looking at him. Gerard staired blankly at his mother. “ you know what? I don’t care anymore. Just don’t EVER do it again or your ass is grass, Gerard. .” She said as she walked out of the room turning the off the lights. Gerard laid on his back looking at his ceiling smiling. He began counting down “ 5 4 3 2 “ before he could say one he heard his mom yelling at mikey “ YOU SAID HE WASN’T IN HIS ROOM!” she yelled at mikey. “one” Gerard said laughing. “ I didn’t see him!” mikey yelled in defense “ my ass! YOU TWO NEED TO STOP YOUR BULLSHIT” “ what bs?” he asked. “ I know somethings going on..im not retarded. Im going to get to the bottom of this.” “ mom be quiet your going to wake up dad” “ I should. You two need an ass wupp’n” she said as She walked out of mikeys room. She opened her door and stepped in her room. The two brothers burst into a fit of laughter and fell asleep.
